Chapter 64 Reclamation II
The next morning, Mei Liu'er's wasteland began to be lively again, turning the ground in front of the ground and picking up grass roots and stones in the back, leveling the ground, everyone was busy with their own work, but they also kept talking, you talk about my baby, I talk about my baby, you talk about your mother-in-law, I talk about my mother-in-law's tea and rice......
The people who ploughed the ground together were all crop men, and when Mei Liuer didn't come to the wasteland, occasionally someone would say one or two meat jokes that made everyone laugh non-stop, and when they saw Mei Liuer coming over from afar, they all diverted the topic and said don't go, Mei Liuer's wasteland was full of hearty laughter from the men all day long.
One morning the next day, Mei Liuer's wasteland was roughly sorted out, Mei Liuer went to mark where to dig the pond, how wide the road to leave between the ground, Mei Liu'er from the time she knew that there was a supervision team when she wanted to make any requirements, she was looking for the captains of the team, so she was looking for Wang Erlang and them for digging the pond.
"Second brother Wang, you see I'm going to dig a pond here, directly bring water from the small river, and then dig one in this position and connect it with the previous one, and then dig another one there, and connect the three so that it is convenient to irrigate the crops at that time, and this water will flow back into the small river from the third pond to make a living water" Mei Liu'er took Wang Erlang and a few of them pointed to the place where she was going to dig the pond yesterday and said.
"Then how big are you going to dig this pond?" asked Wang Erlang.
"Each one is as big as ten acres, mainly because this pond will be used by him in addition to watering the crops," Mei Liu'er said.
Wang Erlang also knew that Mei Liu'er probably wouldn't dig such a big pond just to water the wasteland, and some things they didn't know didn't mean that Mei Liu'er didn't know, so when he heard Mei Liu'er say this, he nodded and said that he knew, but he thought 'That's really the case'.
Wang Erlang and the others took people to start digging ponds in the place designated by Mei Liu'er, and the excavated soil was directly spread into the wasteland, and the three ponds began to dig together.
Because the area of wasteland is larger, there will be more manure needed, and this thing is also used by the farmer's family, Mei Liuer can't buy it if he wants to, and there is only farmer's organic fertilizer in this world, and there is no fertilizer that Mei Liuer used to sell in the world, so Mei Liuer had to use her brain to find a way.
Wang Erlang, Zhao Shi and Da Zhong had already dug the pond, and Mei Liu'er found Yang Sanzhu and Wang Jizu, who were now picking up grass roots and stones from the wasteland with their own team.
"Two big brothers, I want to trouble you to dig a pit in the middle of every ten acres of land, I want to use it to vomit soil and manure, so much land fertilizer is a problem, I am going to dig a pit directly in the ground and vomit soil and manure on the spot, my family does not have livestock and farm fertilizer now, I will get some soil manure or some use"
"Liu'er Lady, how big are you going to dig this pit" Yang Sanzhu asked Mei Liu'er, he thought to himself that he would not have to come to a few acres, so how big is there left in this wasteland digging pit, I am afraid there are not many of them.
As soon as Mei Liu'er heard this, he told them, "It's not too big, it's just about the same size as the dung pond in your house." Mei Liu'er has seen the manure pit of the farmer's house in the village, and almost every farmer has a dung pit.
"Cheng, we know," Wang Jizu replied, the size of the dung pit is almost the same, but there are some people with a larger area in front of the house and behind the house, and the dung pit is larger.
Yang Sanzhu and Wang Jizu went to divide some people and began to dig the pit, after the pit was dug up, the grass roots and these things were thrown directly into it, and after the wait was done, they would invite someone to go to the foot of the mountain to pick up some dead grass and rotten leaves and throw them inside, and then pick up some water and pour it on it, so that it slowly fermented into dung.
Mei Liu'er made use of all the things that could be used, and even picked up stones in the wasteland, Mei Liu'er let him pick up the foot of the hill, waiting to be used directly to build the wall, the hill is to plant fruit trees and raise chickens, if you don't build a wall, you can't wait for the fruit trees to grow into hanging fruits and be stolen, and what if the chickens run away from the field and harm the crops.
Mei Liu'er looked at the people who were working in full swing on the wasteland, and she had an indescribable feeling in her heart, it was warm, Mei Liu'er saw that there was nothing to tell them, so she went back.
Mei Liu'er came home and thought about it, took out a lot of ginger from the space, and called Qu Ran and the two of them began to get busy, the first time she faced these things, there were many places that she didn't expect.
Although it is said that it is not covered with food and more wages, but this water still has to simmer water (the dialect of boiling water) for others to drink, but she was busy yesterday and forgot about it, today I remembered, she is ready to cook ginger syrup for them to drink, now it is cold in winter, they work in the field and sweat, and when they stop for a while, their bodies will be cold, easy to catch a cold, drink some ginger syrup is good.
Qu Ran looked at the ginger that Mei Liu'er took out, and she sighed: "Lady, you have conjured up so many gingers, what are you going to do with these gingers, do you want to boil water for the people who open up the wasteland to drink?" "Qu Ran followed Mei Liu'er to see Jiang several times in the past few days, and when she saw Jiang for the first time, she thought it was amazing, this thing can be eaten, and then it was, 'The lady is so powerful'.
"Yes, I boiled some ginger syrup for them to drink, I didn't think about it yesterday, but I only thought about it today, this person still has to go through things, otherwise he will be as ill-conceived as this time" Mei Liu'er talked to Qu Ran while scrubbing the ginger.
"Yes, that's what my dad told me," Qu Ran nodded and said, and then asked, "Lady, do we cook it and let them come up to drink or carry it down, if you want to carry it down, you have to call someone to help, otherwise our little arms and thin legs can't carry it."
"I want to ask them to help carry it, Xiaoqu, you go to the village chief's house to borrow a few big buckets, the family is all small barrels that can't fit miles" Mei Liu'er thought that the amount of one hundred and ten people would take several large buckets to complete, and if there were no big barrels at home, she asked Qu Ran to go to Wang Gengtian's house to borrow a few big buckets to load.
Qu Ran went to borrow the bucket, Mei Liu'er quickly washed the ginger and brought it to the stove, she brushed the pot first, put water in the pot, and added a little space spring water to it by the way, and then took out the cutting board, broke the ginger piece by piece, and then cut it small and put it in the pot to cook.
Mei Liu'er is divided into three pots to cook, mainly because there are too many and her pot is a small pot, which is cooked separately, Mei Liu'er cut all the ginger and put it in a pot, and went to the house to find sugar.
After a while, Qu Ran came back, and Wang Liu came back with her, both of them carried a big bucket in their hands, and the two of them carried the bucket directly into the stove room, and Mei Liuer was sitting in front of the stove to add firewood.
